Introduction
1. General Intelligence = ability to think abstractly, logically and systematically.
2. Spesific intelligence = talent in music or art or mathematic.
3. The general and the spesific types of intelligence bear some relationship to each other but are not highly
correlated.
4. General creative thinking = clever, elegant or surprising and leads to imaginative solutions.
5. Spesific creative ability possesed by people who produce novel and valuable products in the arts,
sciences, business or politics.
Most studies show a relationship between IQ and creativity there is little or no relationship.

Personality = Who is Creative
• Personality tests (Barron, 1955 and MacKinnon 1962) the higly creative person were found to be
unconventional. They had ‘intelectual ability, vividness or even flamboyance of characther, moodiness
and preoccupation, courage and self centredness.
• Barron (1955: 68) suggested that creative people have an edge to them. In general the highly creative
were found to have high ego strength and flexibility and achieved successes by means of independent
effort rather than conformance. They think and associate ideas in unusual ways
• Highly creative people are independent and significantly less conforming in experimental settings than
less creative people.
• (Csikszentmilhalyi and Getzels, 1973, Albert and Runco, 1986 and MacKinnon, 1964). Personality traits
associated with creativity include independence, openness to experience, a lack of interest in social
norms and social accpetance and interestingly, a high value on the activity itself rather than on status or
money.
• Highly creative people often report that they have pursued their ideas despite advice to the contrary.
They were often told that they were wasting their time or valuable resources and had difficulty obtaining
funds for their work

such as a brick.
2. Circle Test, which ask people to sketch as many different object as
possible using 36 identical blank circles and give each sketch a name.
3. Playfulness is also considered a personality trait and tends to be
characteristic of highly creative individuals, who are often described as
‘childlike but not childish’.

Learning from the lifespan
1. Trying to understand a person over a lifespan is a very complicated
undertaking to understand when and why creative thought turns into
creative accomplishment.
2. Interviews with creative people. the real strength was in knowing a
good question.
3. Knowing the right question may be on of the benefits of having a highly
creative mentor

Social Context
The problems with majorities and high status
When an answer is obvious, people are likely to abandon their own position on a question
when presented with a majority position that differs from their own.
• As an illustration, Navy Bomber crews consisting of a captain, navigator adn gunner were
asked to solve this following problem : A man buys a horse for $60, sells it for $70, buys it back for
$80 and sells it again for $90. How much profit did he make?
There is a liner relationship between status acceptance of an opinion

Hinweis der Redaktion
Apa itu sebenarnya kreativitas? Menurut buku kreativitas tidak sama dengan Problem Solving atau kemampuan memecahkan masalah. Kreativitas itu novel = sesuatu new, tidak bisa, unik dan aneh. Dan harus sesuai dengan masalah.
Beberapa ciri dari kreatif solution adalah Satu mesti unik artinya belum pernah ditemukan sebelumnya Mungkin agak aneh dan yang bukan2 tapi bisa menyelesaikan permasalahan. Bersifat heuristic (memungkinkan seseorang untuk menemukan dan mempelajari sesuatu untuk dirinya) daripada algoritmic step by step problem solving & 5 Proses menacapi solusi itu tidak diketahui, bedakan probelm solving yang step-by-step, point A harus diselesaikan terlebih dahulu kalo belum selesai point B tidak bisa dikerjakan, tidak diketahui tapi masih dimengerti.
Beberapa penilitian berupaya untuk menjelaskan bagaimana seseorang itu kreatif : Seseorang yang cenderung kreatif dapat dijelaskan berdasarkan ciri kepribadiannya Penilitian lain mengarahkan setiap orang ada semacam otak : mode kreatif Ada juga yang berdasarkan jangka hidupnya Ada juga yang mengatakan itu adalah anugrah/karunia bawaan sejak lahir
Ada suatu fakta yang konsisten menyebutkan kreativtias tidaklah sama dengan intelligent, dalam hal ini IQ. Kreativitas itu bisa dilatih beda dengan IQ yang sudah bawaan lahir. There are both general and spesific kinds of intelligence and creativity. Kecerdasan umum itu adalah kemampuan untuk berpikir abstrak, logical dan sistematik Kecerdasan spesifik misalnya bakat dalam bidang musik, seni dan matematika General creative thinking = pintar, elegan atau mengejutkan dan mengarah ke solusi imajinatif. Spesific kemampuan kreatif dimiliki oleh orang yg memproduce novel dan produk yang bervalu diadalam bidang , seni, science dan politic. Dijelaskan bawah hubungan antara IQ dan kreativitas itu sedikit bahkan hampir tidak ada sama sekali. Jika seseorang yang memiliki IQ tinggi dipastikan dia lebih kreatif. Tapi seseorang itu sangat kreatif tidak akan ada pengaruh kepada IQ-nya.
Tes kepribadian (Barron, 1955 dan MacKinnon 1962) orang hihgly kreatif yang ditemukan menjadi tidak konvensional. Mereka memiliki 'kemampuan intelektual yang diwujudkan, kejelasan atau bahkan flamboyan karakter, kemurungan dan keasyikan, keberanian dan rasa centredness. Barron (1955: 68) mengemukakan bahwa orang-orang kreatif memiliki keunggulan mereka. Secara umum sangat kreatif ditemukan memiliki kekuatan ego yang tinggi dan fleksibilitas dan keberhasilan yang dicapai melalui usaha independen daripada kesesuaian. Mereka berpikir dan menghubungkan ide-ide dalam cara yang tidak biasa. Orang yang sangat kreatif independen dan signifikan kurang sesuai dalam pengaturan percobaan dibandingkan orang yang kurang kreatif. (Csikszentmilhalyi dan Getzels, 1973, Albert dan Runco, 1986 dan MacKinnon, 1964). Ciri-ciri kepribadian yang berhubungan dengan kreativitas meliputi kemandirian, keterbukaan terhadap pengalaman, kurangnya minat dalam norma-norma sosial dan penerimaan sosial dan menarik, nilai tinggi pada kegiatan itu sendiri bukan pada status ataupun uang. Orang yang sangat kreatif sering melaporkan bahwa mereka telah mengejar ide-ide mereka meskipun saran yang bertentangan. Mereka sering mengatakan bahwa mereka membuang-buang waktu atau sumber daya yang berharga dan mengalami kesulitan mendapatkan dana untuk pekerjaan mereka
Uses test diberikan batu bata dan menanyakan people untuk menggunakan batubatu itu untuk apa, dari jawaban mereka bisa dilhat seberapa kreatif mereka. Ada yang buat bangunan -> emang untuk itu. Ada yang buat missile -. Kreatif
Ada sebuah ilustrasi dimana seorang captain beserta navigator dan gunnner diminta untuk menyelesaikan sebuah kasus sederhana. Captain menjawab $0, gunner menjawab $10 dollar, navigator menjawab $20 dollar. Terus diminta untuk memutuskan satu jawaban karena pada takut dengan kaptennya semuanya menentukan itu 0$ padahalnya Jawabannya adalah $20 si navigator yang benar.
Devil advocate : meminta seseorang untuk berbeda pendapat untuk menciptakan
Care in requirements = same value, habits and viewpoints
